Actually, the text does shift up/down correctly and you are always able to edit
the text in question. There is, however, a cosmetic bug in performing the shift
because Stata does not properly redraw a section of the editor (just under the
toolbar). This gives the impression that text is under the toolbar when in
reality, it is not.
The fix will involve increasing the area of the redraw so that this region
accurately reflects when text is present.
